A well-known comedian is set to headline Sunday Night Comedy at Weymouth Pavilion after the previous headliner was forced to cancel.

Mock The Week and Live at the Apollo star, Ivo Graham, will stand in for comedian, Ed Gamble, who will no longer perform.

A Facebook post by Weymouth Pavilion, said Mr Gamble was forced to cancel due to adverse weather conditions in New York.

It says: “Due to cancelled flights caused by adverse weather conditions in New York, Ed Gamble is sadly unable to headline Sunday Night Comedy on Sunday.”

“Despite the disappointing news, we're delighted to announce that the show will go on! Ivo Graham, star of Mock The Week and Live At The Apollo, will be headlining this Sunday's comedy night in Ed's place.

“We apologise for any inconvenience.”

Mr Graham will be supported by comedian, Steve Bugeja, who was awarded the BBC Radio New Comedy Award in 2013. He has performed on Russel Howard’s Stand Up Central and CBBC’s Dog Ate My Homework.
